The Babel IFV was too inconspicious.
Commanders from Victoria and Yan had complained that the vehicle was a toy of contradictions.
It was a transport that seriously couldn't transport much. It was too large to do any meaningful reconnaissance work.
And it had the armor of a Durin car.
But for the Columbians and Operators who worked with it, they loved it.
While the advantageous are cited by everybody, the vehicle makes up for it all with a big cannon, and a machine guns that can safely fight and engage.
Columbia loved it in particular. The nation saw the vehicle and believed it had immense potential. While it may not have the sneakier profile that the other has - I mean, it isn't hard to miss - they loved the firepower.
Artillery was the concern as always, but they didn't exactly fear the others. That gun leveled on a few casters once and it completely and utterly removed them for scratching the paint.
Perfectly proportional considering what those Sarkaz Casters can do if they're together.
A Babel was nearly lost one time because they were able to launch a successful ambush that disabled the tracks before trying to chip away int the hull and destroy the crew.
The operators onboard were quick to dismount and they had worked to save the IFV.
They had to defend for 20 minutes against a horde of Great Swordsmen and Casters which descended like an angry swarm.
Playing wave survival against a bunch of mercenaries essentially, backed up by monsters.
It went as well as the enemy expected it would, considering the entire situation.
The Babel IFV was pivotal int hat moment, its machine gun and its big gun wiped out waves at a speed that was acceptable enough to keep the enemy numbers thinned and to keep their operators safe.
The successful operation there led to a successful ground invasion of that nomadic city, and this allowed them to get even closer to Theresis.
There has been talks of upgrading it with a slightly better armored plating. Perhaps incorporate some of the D32 Steel as well as some firepower improvements.
But Rhodes Island needs to sign off on such modifications and they still need more data and funding to even secure such a package.
The Columbian Government might be willing to dig into their wallets, they do have some pretty lucrative trade deals with the pharmaceutical company.
Admittedly at the power they have, the Union Government can put a proverbial velvet glove to the companies or a gun to their head to comply in making their own upgrades.
But they have to pay royalties to Rhodes Island.
Prices to pay of course.
But to take one more look at the last armored vehicle, and we can see what the Coalition can proudly proclaim using against Kazdel.
The most recent masterpiece of the Doctor's mind.
